run-ios-sim

Easy way to run the ios simulator.

Features

• normalizeName(nameAndVersion, dontResolveLatest = false): Return a simulator name and version normalized
  • The nameAndVersion is name[@version] where @version is optional
    • If no @version is given @latest is assumed
    • @latest will be resolved via getLatestSdk
      • Use dontResolveLatest=true to disable this lookup
  • Example 1: normalizeName('ipadAIR') == { name: 'iPad Air', version: '9.2' }
  • Example 2: normalizeName('ipadAIR@latest') == normalizeName('ipadAIR')
  • Example 3: normalizeName('ipad@8') == { name: 'iPad', version: '8.0' }
• getLatestSdk(): Returns the latest installed SDK version
• getExistingSimulator(nameAndVersion): Check if there is a matching simulator
  • nameAndVersion will be resolved via normalizeName
• run(appPath, nameAndVersion, opts = {}): Run your app on a simulator
  • Note: The returned promise will resolve once the simulator is stopped
  • appPath should be the full path to your .app folder
  • nameAndVersion will be resolved via normalizeName
  • Use opts to access more details:
    • onSimStart callback called with: udid
    • onSimStop callback called with: udid
    • onAppInstall callback called with: udid, appPath
    • onAppStart callback called with: udid, appPath, sku
    • onLogLine callback called with: line
• getAppSku(appPath): Returns the sku/CFBundleIdentifier from a given appPath
• ensureDevice(nameAndVersion): Ensures a matching simulator exists
• getFirstSimulator(): Returns the first found simulator
  • Result is a object with name and version, similar to normalizeName

Run as binary

This package also contains a binary called run-ios-sim that calls the exposed run method. Here is a short example:

$ run-ios-sim ~/myAwsome.app iphone4s

Not that the second argument, nameAndVersion, will be resolved via normalizeName. So you can use iphone4s, iphone4s@latest, iphone6@8.1 or anything else.

Installation

npm install --save run-ios-sim
